[QUOTE="gsahli, post: 1618829, member: 182015"] Connecting to a wifi network requires a "smart" device, which is why the Time Capsule is expensive. What you've described is called Network-attached storage (NAS). Because of file transfer speeds, they're mostly ethernet rather than wifi. You might look for a used Airport Extreme Base Station, and attach a USB drive to it to get that functionality at lower cost. [/QUOTE]
